So the other day when I was visiting L's class during lunchtime, I noticed his teachers were discussing who would be the "Manner's King/Queen" for the day. I commented how cool that was for rewarding the children for being polite while eating their lunch and doing so in a very tangible way. Then fast forward to yesterday, when Liam came home proudly displaying a crown on his head. He walked tall in from school and said, "Mommy, I was crowned Manners King today!!!" Wow, what a treat! And what a blessing to receive this reinforcement at school. He wore the crown for most of day and was eager to share with Baba, Oupa, and Nana his reward for good behavior.
The "Just Because" portion is the dozen red roses Daniel brought home to me on Monday. They weren't for Valentine's Day, I already received my fun gift for that. They were just because. I love that! Along with the roses, D thanked me again and again for taking care of our boys, our house, and managing all the unseen things on a daily basis. Thank you, thank you, thank you God for my dear husband and the love and appreciation he shows me. It makes it all worth while!

I hope Liam said, "Thank you" when they gave him the crown. ;)
